MessageBox的使用

 

 

MessageBox Function

---

 

The MessageBox function creates, displays, and operates a message box. The message box contains an application-defined message and title, plus any combination of predefined icons and push buttons.

Syntax

int MessageBox(      

    HWND hWnd,    LPCTSTR lpText,    LPCTSTR lpCaption,    UINT uType);

Parameters

hWnd

[in] Handle to the owner window of the message box to be created. If this parameter is NULL, the message box has no owner window.

lpText

[in] Pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the message to be displayed.

lpCaption

[in] Pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the dialog box title. If this parameter is NULL, the default title Error is used.

uType

[in] Specifies the contents and behavior of the dialog box. This parameter can be a combination of flags from the following groups of flags.

To indicate the buttons displayed in the message box, specify one of the following values.

MB_ABORTRETRYIGNORE

The message box contains three push buttons: Abort, Retry, and Ignore.

MB_CANCELTRYCONTINUE

Microsoft Windows 2000/XP: The message box contains three push buttons: Cancel, Try Again, Continue. Use this message box type instead of MB_ABORTRETRYIGNORE.

MB_HELP

Windows 95/98/Me, Windows NT 4.0 and later: Adds a Help button to the message box. When the user clicks the Help button or presses F1, the system sends a WM_HELP message to the owner.

MB_OK

The message box contains one push button: OK. This is the default.

MB_OKCANCEL

The message box contains two push buttons: OK and Cancel.

MB_RETRYCANCEL

The message box contains two push buttons: Retry and Cancel.

MB_YESNO

The message box contains two push buttons: Yes and No.

MB_YESNOCANCEL

The message box contains three push buttons: Yes, No, and Cancel.

To display an icon in the message box, specify one of the following values.

MB_ICONEXCLAMATION

An exclamation-point icon appears in the message box.

MB_ICONWARNING

An exclamation-point icon appears in the message box.

MB_ICONINFORMATION

An icon consisting of a lowercase letter i in a circle appears in the message box.

MB_ICONASTERISK

An icon consisting of a lowercase letter i in a circle appears in the message box.

MB_ICONQUESTION

A question-mark icon appears in the message box. The question mark message icon is no longer recommended because it does not clearly represent a specific type of message and because the phrasing of a message as a question could apply to any message type. In addition, users can confuse the message symbol question mark with Help information. Therefore, do not use this question mark message symbol in your message boxes. The system continues to support its inclusion only for backward compatibility.

MB_ICONSTOP

A stop-sign icon appears in the message box.

MB_ICONERROR

A stop-sign icon appears in the message box.

MB_ICONHAND

A stop-sign icon appears in the message box.

To indicate the default button, specify one of the following values.

MB_DEFBUTTON1

The first button is the default button.

MB_DEFBUTTON1 is the default unless MB_DEFBUTTON2, MB_DEFBUTTON3, or MB_DEFBUTTON4 is specified.

MB_DEFBUTTON2

The second button is the default button.

MB_DEFBUTTON3

The third button is the default button.

MB_DEFBUTTON4

The fourth button is the default button.

To indicate the modality of the dialog box, specify one of the following values.

MB_APPLMODAL

The user must respond to the message box before continuing work in the window identified by the hWnd parameter. However, the user can move to the windows of other threads and work in those windows.

Depending on the hierarchy of windows in the application, the user may be able to move to other windows within the thread. All child windows of the parent of the message box are automatically disabled, but popup windows are not.

MB_APPLMODAL is the default if neither MB_SYSTEMMODAL nor MB_TASKMODAL is specified.

MB_SYSTEMMODAL

Same as MB_APPLMODAL except that the message box has the WS_EX_TOPMOST style. Use system-modal message boxes to notify the user of serious, potentially damaging errors that require immediate attention (for example, running out of memory). This flag has no effect on the user's ability to interact with windows other than those associated with hWnd.

MB_TASKMODAL

Same as MB_APPLMODAL except that all the top-level windows belonging to the current thread are disabled if the hWnd parameter is NULL. Use this flag when the calling application or library does not have a window handle available but still needs to prevent input to other windows in the calling thread without suspending other threads.

To specify other options, use one or more of the following values.

MB_DEFAULT_DESKTOP_ONLY

Windows NT/2000/XP: Same as MB_SERVICE_NOTIFICATION except that the system will display the message box only on the default desktop of the interactive window station. For more information, see Window Stations.

Windows NT 4.0 and earlier: If the current input desktop is not the default desktop, MessageBox fails.

Windows 2000/XP: If the current input desktop is not the default desktop, MessageBox does not return until the user switches to the default desktop.

Windows 95/98/Me: This flag has no effect.

MB_RIGHT

The text is right-justified.

MB_RTLREADING

Displays message and caption text using right-to-left reading order on Hebrew and Arabic systems.

MB_SETFOREGROUND

The message box becomes the foreground window. Internally, the system calls the SetForegroundWindow function for the message box.

MB_TOPMOST

The message box is created with the WS_EX_TOPMOST window style.

MB_SERVICE_NOTIFICATION

Windows NT/2000/XP: The caller is a service notifying the user of an event. The function displays a message box on the current active desktop, even if there is no user logged on to the computer.

Terminal Services: If the calling thread has an impersonation token, the function directs the message box to the session specified in the impersonation token.

If this flag is set, the hWnd parameter must be NULL. This is so the message box can appear on a desktop other than the desktop corresponding to the hWnd.

For more information on the changes between Microsoft Windows NT 3.51 and Windows NT 4.0, see Remarks.

MB_SERVICE_NOTIFICATION_NT3X

Windows NT/2000/XP: This value corresponds to the value defined for MB_SERVICE_NOTIFICATION for Windows NT version 3.51.

For more information on the changes between Windows NT 3.51 and Windows NT 4.0, see Remarks.

Return Value

 

If a message box has a Cancel button, the function returns the IDCANCEL value if either the ESC key is pressed or the Cancel button is selected. If the message box has no Cancel button, pressing ESC has no effect.

If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

If the function succeeds, the return value is one of the following menu-item values.

 

IDABORTAbort button was selected.IDCANCELCancel button was selected.IDCONTINUEContinue button was selected.IDIGNOREIgnore button was selected.IDNONo button was selected.IDOKOK button was selected.IDRETRYRetry button was selected.IDTRYAGAINTry Again button was selected.IDYES

中文解释：

MessageBox这个函数可以在VC里面显示一个标准对话框。
函数原型：
int MessageBox(HWND hWnd, LPCTSTR lpText, LPCTSTR lpCaption, UINT, uType);
参数含义：
HWND hWnd —— 父窗口的句柄。（在使用的时候发现在CView类里面不要填这一项，但是如果是再其他的类中，就要填写）
LPCTSTR lpText —— 对话框的内容
LPCTSTR lpCaption —— 对话框的标题
UINT uType ——窗口的风格
风格：
MB_DEFBUTTON1 —— 缺省按钮为第一个按钮
MB_DEFBUTTON2 —— 缺省按钮为第二个按钮
MB_DEFBUTTON3 —— 缺省按钮为第三个按钮
MB_ICONEXCLAMATION —— 显示图标为惊叹号
MB_ICONQUESTION —— 显示图标为问号
MB_ICONSTOP —— 显示图标为红叉叉
MB_ABORTRETRYIGNORE —— 显示终止、重试、忽略按钮
MB_OK —— 只显示确定按钮
MB_OKCANCEL —— 显示确定和取消按钮
MB_RETRYCANCEL —— 显示重试和取消按钮
同时应用多个风格的时候用|连接。
返回值：
IDABORT —— 按下了终止按钮
IDRETRY —— 按下了重试按钮
IDIGNORE —— 按下了忽略按钮
IDOK —— 按下了确定按钮
IDCANSEL —— 按下了取消按钮
IDYES —— 按下了是按钮
IDNO —— 按下了否按钮

    比如要显示一个带有红叉图标的按钮为终止、重试、忽略，并且默认按钮为重试，标题为“我顶”，内容为“我顶你个肺”的对话框，并且还要求如果单击了终止，则给a赋值为1，那么语句则为：
if(MessageBox("我顶你个肺", "我顶", MB_ABORTRETRYIGNORE |  MB_DEFBUTTON2 | MB_ICONSTOP) == IDABORT) {
a = 1;
}
